Steffen Baumgart's team is ranked 6th in the German Bundesliga standings with 32 points after 21 rounds. FC Koln gained eight victories and eight draws and suffered five defeats. The Goats have been less confident in recent matches than their upcoming opponents. Baumgart's men were left without a victory in the German Cup match against Hamburg (1-1 and 3-4 on penalties), and in the Bundesliga, they lost to Bayern Munich (0-4) and tied against Bochum (2-2). On February 5, FC Koln won for the first time in four matches, having coped with Freiburg at home (1-0). The victory for the Goats was brought by an accurate shot by Anthony Modeste, who scored seven goals in the last seven games.
Football players from Cologne have recently avoided defeats from the Red Bulls. In the last three head-to-head matches, the Goats gained one victory and two draws. One of them happened in the match of the 5th round of the current German championship. The game in Cologne on September 18 ended with a score of 1-1. The upcoming match in Leipzig promises to be rich in goals. Both teams do not hesitate to go forward with big forces, so it is logical to bet on high production. The history of previous head-to-head confrontations points in favor of this outcome: six out of eight games ended with at least three goals scored. Teams’ statistics also hint at good performance. There were at least three goals scored in nine out of 11 Leipzig’s home games. In addition, FC Koln could not keep a clean sheet in all ten away matches in the current championship.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.0 goals scored
